“In a little over an hour, I was swept away to the sprawling
farmlands of the United States, witnessed ground-breaking discoveries
in nanotechnology and brought to the bleeding edge of web
entertainment. As with all business plan pitches, I had my fair share
of oddballs but the sheer number of proposals that truly offered
innovation and potential, coupled with a truly heartfelt passion that
can be seen in each proposal, Pitching Across America is indeed a
wonderful platform for those who want to stand up and be counted
amongst the great startups of our times.”- Nicholas Chan, Azione Capital Pte Ltd

“Being the national winner of Pitching Across America was a terrific boost for Remote Play, FundingPost’s competition got us in front of a host of different types of investors, from Angel investors to Venture Capitalists. Certainly the publicity we received from Pitching Across America helped us secure our Series A round of financing.”
